Funny, This Real Estate Business

A client bought a new home and the broker wanted to send flowers for the occasion. 
They arrived at the home and the owner read the card; it said "Rest in Peace".

The owner was angry and called the florist to complain. After he had told the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he was, the florist said. "Sir, I'm really sorry for the mistake, but rather than getting angry you should imagine this: somewhere there is a funeral taking place today, and they have flowers with a note saying, "Congratulations on your new home".

Tina Parker - I've been involved in real estate since the mid-1970s. Not in sales but the real estate valuation side of the profession. But to me, real estate, and the stories entangled with ownership, rental, disputes, and sale, are more interesting than any other field you could be in.  Very funny story.  I hope the funeral folks can take it lightheartedly.

Tina,
It all depends on which side of the coin you are looking at. Being able to read anything is better than others reading about you.
